Uh, you folks didn't buy enough for 'em to make 'em.  You have no heat to put.

Eh, I think the blame is on both us and manufacturers to a degree. We don't buy enough, and they don't make enough. I know I was looking at a DD barrel but, the darn thing was virtually never in stock, and that was before the panic.

The problem isn't theme making the barrels the problem it they are being cheep asses and varying the profile to not have to source 625 gas blocks and fsp's

So how much does it cost to turn one down?

Not sure a proper job can be done to a .750. You would have the FSB area to turn.

i would think in the end you would be better off buying a colt barrel. you would be well over $300 for the DD barrel with it turned down.

Colts aren't going to be as accurate, and it's difficult to find them in 14.5 and 11.5.

They sold lots of them, they just figure they'll sell plenty of them in the new contour as well.

CMMG stopped making them a few years back also.
Im glad I got mine when I did. Same with my DD.  I have 2 nice middy retros built on them.

The were lightweight not pencil.  Criterion barrels are better and pencil contoured.  Yeah, they cost more but at least they're the right contour.
